Spring flowers



Hello friends! I've had a busy week, but here I am again. 
Yesterday was so beautiful I took the kids on a walk to the park, and today it snowed. Thats Colorado weather for you, gotta love it! I'm having a little spring fever though, and although its snowy outside, and my garden will be dead for another month or so, I'm SO ready for spring!


I finally took out my new February release PTI goodies and got to stamping!
I used the colors from CR84FN as inspiration. Aren't they beautiful together?

 
I used the tulips from the new Friendship Jars Spring Fillers, and embossed them along with the jar in white. Then I colored them in with Copic markers. I think they almost look watercolored. I had an oopsie while cutting the flowers out...I cut a leaf off! EEk! I tried to fix it but you can still tell a little bit.
I used papers from PTI and The Girls Paperie. 


I also entered this card in the Moxie Fab stamping with markers challenge,
And the City Crafter's 'spring fling' challenge.
